Certain bridging visa decisions--request to call witnesses

  (i)   give the applicant the opportunity to appear before it; or

  (ii)   obtain oral evidence from a specified person or persons; and

  (b)   the applicant has been invited to appear before the Tribunal in relation to the decision under review.

  (a)   must have regard to the applicant's request; but

  (b)   is not required to obtain evidence (oral or otherwise) from a person named in the applicant's request.

  (3)   To avoid doubt, nothing in this Division requires the Tribunal to adjourn the review or to delay making a decision so that:
